STRENGTHS
- Has the size, length and instincts teams covet on the back end.
- Plays with predatory mentality from split safety and robber alignment.
- Shades coverage to route development and the quarterback's eyes.
- High-end ball tracker with ball skills to flip the field on the pro level.
- Athletic and light on his feet in open-field coverage.
- Operates with good field balance and discipline as a high safety.
- Uses length and agility to expand his tackle range against cuts.
"Talented safety prospect with the size, length and instincts that teams are looking for to shore up the back end. Nubin has the ability to play as an interchangeable safety but will make his money as a ball thief. He's rangy over the top in two-high safety looks and plays chess in the middle of the field, using instincts to think along with the quarterback and pounce on throws from an angle." – Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
